Beleaguered U.S. Postal Service to test same-day delivery

The U.S. Postal Service is moving aggressively to start a premium service for the Internet shopper seeking same-day package delivery, The Associated Press reports.

The post office will team with major retailers to begin expedited service in San Francisco on Dec. 12 at a price similar to its competitors. If the program is successful, it will be expanded to other large cities, according to the AP.
